The hotel is quiet and very quaint. The owner-operators, who are also very talented artists, have hand painted and decorated the property in a hacienda theme. It is so wonderful, we spent as much time sitting on the patio and by the pool as we did at the beach. The rooms were clean, the price was reasonable in walking distance... more

Great little hotel, perfect for a quiet escape. I was there last week of August 2008 with my 3 teenage kids and it was super, walking distance to bars and restaurants, relaxing decor and very nice and unobtrousive owners. Would definately go back! more

Lauderdale area. I contacted the Blue Seas because of its rave reviews on Tripadvisor.com. Its location is tops and the... more

If you are interested in a smaller motel/hotel in this area this is a nice one. it was clean and convenient to the square where there are restaurants etc. there isn't a lot of room at the pool so if you have a few couples you need to get the chairs early. Also you need to ask for more towels... more

This is the first review I've ever written, and I am definitely not a writer, but my experience with this motel was so wonderful, that I had to let everyone know. We had stayed in this town before, and walked by this motel, so I wanted to stay there, as it looked so cute and inviting. It's a small 14... more

Had a great stay for our annual girls get away from home trip! The rooms are clean and well maintained. We particularly chose this hotel because of the kitchen areas in each efficiency. The pool area was beautiful. We were particularly thrilled with the location. Across the street from the beach. (FYI - no ocean view). A short walk to... more

The Blue Seas Courtyard is a wonderful, afordable place to stay in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. It was impeccably clean. The decor was very lovely -- tasteful and not over-the-top. The owners are extremely friendly. We stayed in a one-bedroom which had plenty of room, including a dining room, a king bed in the bedroom, and two twin daybeds in the living room.... more
